Music & Jewellery Boxes
The "Doll on a Music Box"!
Made iconic by the song "Truly Scrumptious", a little spinning figurine on top of a music box is part of our European heritage. The twinkling sounds of a clock-work music box are very emotive and bring new joy to young kids today.
We love the sounds too and we keep a great range of music boxes, carousels and ornamental jewellery boxes for kids to enjoy ... all with classic mechanical, wind-up music boxes inside.
The clockwork music box has a fascinating history dating back to the 18th century. Their origins can be traced to Switzerland, where skilled watchmakers combined precision engineering with musical expertise. These early music boxes used intricate clockwork mechanisms to produce melodious tunes, often through a rotating cylinder studded with pins that plucked the tuned metal tines of a tuned comb.
What’s the best music box to buy?
We stock quite a few music boxes, and many of them are combined with a jewellery box! Consider these factors before you buy music and jewellery boxes online in Australia.
Box or no box : Many of our music boxes are sold as just the clockwork mechanism. These tiny items are not part of a jewellery box and are designed to simply operate in your hand for the simple delight of hearing the tune. Some music boxes are part of boxes with figurines and drawers etc., so decide what you’re trying to achieve before choosing.
The tune : Each music box plays one specific tune, so you’ll need to be happy with the one you’re choosing. We try to indicate in the notes which tune each plays, but sometimes we don’t recognise the tune! If you’re unsure and would like to hear the tune, give us a call and we’ll play it for you.
The figurine: Where a music mechanism is built into a jewellery box, it will typically cause a tiny figurine to rotate when operating. These figurines are typically a ballet dancer, a fairy, a princess, an owl or even a little unicorn. You need to be happy with the figuring according to the recipient.
